Well, I got up on this morning and started for home.
You better believe while I was driving over that, that my sunroof was open and low and behold a barge was coming. Not today Satan.
I made it just in time to get in the car rider line at school to pick up one granddaughter. Then picked up the other one. Got home and unloaded. Changed clothes and got straight to work in the garden. We didn't have much time because the clouds were coming. We got it tilled and got one thing planted. We were exhausted.
These girls work harder than some grown ups. Sweat and all. G-Maws little farm girls. 🚜 👩🌾👩🌾
The youngest wanted to learn how to run the tiller to like big sissy. So, I let her with super vision of course. I have a self propelled tiller that dear hubby got me because he loves making my life so much easier.
Of course I had to bring some goodies home. Because that's how I roll. ❤️❤️
Since it rained all night, we couldn't get back in the garden the next day so it was a lazy, cozy, playing day.
They loved the dresses I made. I guess I will be making more. I may make one for myself. You can read about it and see the dresses in previous posts. I need to finish one and I've got one more to make and will be doing a video on it as a tutorial.
We had tea parties and hair dressing parties.
The next day, it was still wet so we got to play more. They didn't get to get out in the garden with me before they had to go to Mommy's house. More rain was coming.
The next day, I prayed for God to hold off the rain just long enough for me to get my tomato and pepper plants out.
I left my Aerogardens with my momma back in February. She started some tomatoes and peppers in them for us. This is the result of her handy work. 👏
She did a very good job. They came to visit one day while the girls were here and brought them with them. More on that in a bit.
I got them all in the ground and just as I got my behind in the back door, it started raining.
We are downsizing the garden this year and only growing what we need to restock. We are only doing tomatoes, peppers, okra and zucchini. The zucchini is only for Pickling. We have gone through just about every jar I canned last summer and same goes for the okra.
The tomatoes will be for multiple things. We are out of peppers for cooking and canning roasted peppers.
Our oldest son came and helped me section off the garden and put my solar electric fence back up for the new perimeter.
If you want to know how we plant things in our garden, you can check out our Gardening Page here on our blog in the titles in the subheading. Or you can check out our videos on our Gardening Playlist on our YouTube channel.
As I said earlier, my Momma and Daddy came to visit. We used this as our Mothers Day visit because I would be going back to AR and wouldn't be here for Mothers day.
We had a great visit. Our youngest son came and cooked us brunch and visited with us.
After all was complete in the garden, I had to get ready to head out for AR again the next morning.
I arrived back to dear hubby and all is well in his world again. Now that we have been at each other's side and me traveling with him the past few years, he had grown accustom to it and he hates when I'm not there.
We only have a week left here on this job and we will be packing up and heading home. He is so excited to get back to doing all his things he loves and spending time with family.
I've got to get in this kitchen and prep him some breakfast meals for work every morning. Before I left, I had him fixed up with breakfasts, lunches and suppers to last him until I got back. They are all gone and need to get him covered for this week.
I will see you all in the next post. I might even do a post on make ahead freezer breakfasts for you that I'm going to go prep right now. Until then, enjoy this weather and your day.
God Bless.
